Not the worst, but definitely not the best...

I made another lentil dinner last night, and this one wasn't quite as delicioso. It's always good to try something new, though!

This recipe for Rosemary Lentil Loaf sounded and looked good, and also used ingredients that I already had. I like that there is some sweet potato stealthily added. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't fantastic. It needed some more spice or something. I followed the recipe exactly, except I put some ketchup and mustard on top for the last 10 minutes...I'm white trash like that.
We had mashed potatoes and corn on the side. I'm pretty sure I could live on mashed potatoes. I know there are people on both sides of the mashed potato war...lumps or no lumps. But I'm like Sir Mix a Lot. I like it thick and chunky.
I leave the peel on and mash by hand, and instead of milk I use vegetable broth. The corn was...a can of corn!
This dinner WAS really filling. It must be the oatmeal that's mixed in with the loaf. I probably won't make this again, but you never know. It's a good excuse for mashed potatoes, anyway!
